The house is nice for a family vacation - lots of space, well equipped kitchen, nice outdoor space with fire pit and gas grill. The guest service was very helpful and reacted quickly.
Unfortunately, the place is clearly getting old and could use better cleaning and maintenance. There was some black mold in several showers, a very visible layer of dust on our bathroom door and also the power outlets and switches were not clean in areas that or not just plain surfaces. Based on the amount of pet hair that stuck to luggage we had lying on the main bedroom carpet, that carpet should have been vacuumed better (we don't have any pets, so those weren't from us). The gas grill wasn't cleaned at all - in fact there was mold in the grill. Of course, that burns away easily but it's simply not a great sight.
The upper bedroom door was almost fully stuck - very difficult to open and close - and the hinges were squeaking awfully which is really not nice when you go to bed late while others in the house are sleeping already. Some windows had no screens, others had screens with holes so big that lizards fit through (literally - there are a lot of small lizards around and one of them had made it through a hole in the screen on the main bedroom window).
One of the showers had no shower door. We were told that the guests before us broke it and a replacement was ordered. It would have been nice if a temporary shower curtain was installed. We had booked for 6 guests and planned on using all 4 showers.
Last but not least, the gas in both gas bottles - the one for the fire pit and the one for the grill - ran out. We were able to get an exchange bottle at the Walgreens down the street and got reimbursed. But there really should have been one spare bottle in the house so that we didn't need to head out right when we wanted to prepare dinner.
The property was perfect for the family coming from out of state for our sons wedding. Everyone had their own bathroom to get ready, house and neighborhood were quiet and beautiful. Back yard is perfect with a family and a dog.

Large, luxurious house made our 4-night mini-vacation quite memorable. Would recommend to all.
